In my application, I display two dialogs. For each, I have a getXXXDialogMessage() method which formulates the message (based on the current state of the app) and returns a string. Then, in both onCreateDialog and onPrepareDialog, I call dialog.setMessage(getXXXDialogMessage()).
I'll have to check my logcat to see what happens if a rotate happens while one of these dialogs is displayed, I haven't tested that yet.
